Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) has introduced new art installations, showcasing the talents of local and regional artists. The initiative aims to enhance the travel experience by integrating cultural elements into the airport environment.

Mike Christensen, Interim Chief Development Officer at Los Angeles World Airports, stated, "The influx of Memorial Day weekend passengers and the beginning of the summer travel season corresponds well with the opening of LAX’s newest exhibitions. We remain steadfast in our commitment to offer travelers more than just a journey, providing them with experiences of the very best that L.A. has to offer." He emphasized that LAX's art program not only beautifies terminals but also positions LAX as a cultural destination.

Since summer 2023, ticketed passengers and airport employees have benefited from improved pedestrian access across all terminals, allowing convenient movement between Terminals 1 and 8 post-security. This connectivity grants access to various amenities including the entire art program.

Sarah Cifarelli, Art Program Director at LAX, remarked on the importance of regularly refreshing exhibitions: “Refreshing exhibitions at the airport regularly means that passengers and employees have an opportunity to immerse themselves in new narratives and perspectives from Los Angeles's diverse communities, while also enjoying cherished favorites on permanent view.” She highlighted how these installations reflect Los Angeles's rich cultural fabric.

One featured installation is Laura Hull's "Flora (Flores amplificati)," located in Terminals 1 and 2 connecting hallway post-security. Hull uses digital manipulation to create a mural depicting Southern California's plant life. The installation will be available for viewing until spring 2025.

Deborah Aschheim presents "365 Days of Voters" in Terminal 2 baggage claim pre-security area. This collection includes over 500 hand-drawn portraits of voters from her time as Artist-in-Residence for Los Angeles County Registrar Recorder/County Clerk. Her project extends to social media under Instagram @365daysofvoters and is open through spring 2025.

The Tom Bradley International Terminal features "Re-Iterative II," curated by John David O’Brien. This group exhibition explores contemporary artists' processes through related works and is accessible until spring 2025.

Additionally, Serge Sarkis’s sculpture "Mayor Tom Bradley" has been reinstalled at a dedicated site after undergoing restoration during TBIT Vertical Core construction. It remains on permanent display.

For further information or media assets related to these installations, resources are available online courtesy of Los Angeles World Airports.
